1991 300E ignition switch question
I am having an issue with what I think is the ignition switch, but might be the tumbler or something else, so thought I would get the opinion of the forum before I just started buying parts.
So the buzzer quit coming on when the key is turned on, haven't noticed any other issues, just the buzzer. The part that concerns me is that if you turn the key on slowly, the buzzer will come on, like there's something not making a good connection. I'm not worried about the buzzer, but I also don't want to ignore it if this is an early warning that one of the parts is about to fail, and possibly leave me stranded. Any ideas? Thanks! |

It is great that you are trying to be preemptive towards future problems; however, in this case I think the buzzer issue doesn't by itself indicate other problems.
Unrelated to the buzzer but aiming at the feeling of a worn ignition tumbler, if the car is a nice long term keeper consider new factory cut keys by VIN and possibly a new tumbler. The difference is amazing. Good luck!!!
